Same-Day Crowns in Rittman, OH

Dental crowns are dental restorations that are placed over a tooth in order to restore or improve its function and appearance. A crown may also be used to strengthen a tooth with a large filling when there isn’t enough tooth remaining to hold the filling in place. Additionally, a crown may be placed over a tooth that has had a root canal in order to protect it from fracturing. Another function a crown can perform is as the visible component of dental implant restoration. 

What Are Same-Day Crowns? 

A same-day crown is a custom-made cap (crown) that is designed and fabricated to fit over the top of a damaged tooth or attached to a dental implant. Our dentist in Rittman, OH can affix the crown on the day it is made, allowing you to walk out of your dentist’s office with a fully restored smile that same day! 

Benefits of Same-Day Crowns 

Same-day crowns are a convenient option for patients looking to restore their damaged or decaying teeth without waiting weeks for their permanent restoration to come in from the lab. 

Many people choose same-day dental crown procedures because they can be completed in one visit, with no need for temporary crowns or multiple visits for fittings. If a patient has a temporary crown placed, they will likely need another appointment after the final crown arrives to complete a fitting. With same-day dental crowns, patients do not have to deal with this hassle.

Same-day procedures are completed more quickly than other custom restorations. Patients don’t have to worry about waiting for their teeth to be prepared to receive their new restoration. Oftentimes, same-day dental crowns are finished during the same visit with other treatments like fillings and root canal therapy. This saves the patient time in the long run and reduces the number of overall appointments they have to make. 

Another benefit of same-day dental crowns is the potential for fewer complications. When a temporary crown is in place, there is an increased risk of de-bonding or the tooth falling off. When the permanent crown is placed immediately after the initial visit with the dentist, there is less of a chance that this will happen. Patients can enjoy peace of mind knowing that their same-day dental crown will stay in place for years to come. 

Most patients who have teeth restored with a same-day dental crown are able to enjoy these benefits and more. They are able to enjoy all the functions of a natural smile without having to go through a lengthy process or multiple appointments in order to do so.
